oil painting
I currently have 6 paintings on view in a group show at Santa Ysabel Art Gallery in Santa Ysabel (near Julian, CA) including 4 new works painted at Jane Culp’s home in Anza, CA where I was fortunate to get to paint for a couple of weeks in this devastatingly beautiful 60 acres in a remote mountain area of the Anza-Borrego Desert.
I didn’t have time to take the greatest photos but here are some preliminary iPhone shots, I apologise for the less than ideal images.
Igneous Drama, 03/10, Oil on linen 16 x 20 inches
A painting I recently finished. Done on Mt Woodson next to a large vernal pond. I found the drama of the way the rock and tree shapes interacted particularly captivating – I hope I did the scene justice.
